Pit Bull haters regularly use the old "it's in their genes" as the reason some pit bulls attack however when asked if pit bulls attack because of their "Genes" how do you explain the 128 deaths involving non pit bull types between 2005 and 2015 then, that's when they go quiet and generally block me as they don't have an answer because their "it's in their genes" claims are complete and utter nonsense as proved by the fact that over thirty breeds/types of dogs have attacked and killed humans.
Sometimes I like to post pictures like this to show how powerful genetics are. Our Front dog is pointing a big rooster pheasant. The 2 dogs are backing (or honoring) his point on the bird. This was not trained into the dogs. They do it naturally. Crazy how they just know to honor the dog on point when they see it.
Now a quick Google search entitled "are pointers born knowing how to point or do they have to be trained to point" actually reveals the reality and that is just like every other dogs "pointers' have to be trained too, yes they have the instinct to point but they can't actually perform the job properly without training.

"Dogs can’t read plans but trainers can and although there has to be an element of flexibility when working with animals you must have some idea of a plan if you are to succeed. The whole idea of breeding my own dogs is to have them early, I try to have the basics instilled by twenty weeks, twenty six weeks at the very latest. Pups seem most receptive to training in these first few months and I have found that puppies learn things very quickly even though you would expect an older dog to have more sense and understanding. I have also found that lessons taught successfully in these early months are easily revised in later years if the dog seems to regress."

The fact is these people have absolutely no legitimate or reputable data or science based information supporting their claims about pit bulls and that's why they have little alternative but to try and pull these underhanded completely useless parlor games claiming all dogs act on the instincts of their breeding which again is utter nonsense.
The fact is all dogs need training and it starts when they're only weeks old, these people clam that pit bulls don't have to be trained to fight they obviously are either lying or they've never seen the tread mills they run them on for hours on end and they obviously haven't seen the "spring polls' they use to strengthen the dogs jaw muscles and they're obviously not aware pit bull puppies bred for fighting start their training early being "rolled' against other kennel mates as young as 3 months old to evaluate if they have potential & if they don't have potential they're used as bait for dogs that do show potential anyone that thinks any purpose bred fighting dogs end up at the pound is either a fool or being deliberately ignorant.
Jenny is a pit bull hater and she regularly engages in this type of dangerous disinformation as is the case with the majority of breed specific legislation advocates who seem happy to sacrifice the 128 victims to non pit bulls every decade in order to cause the extinction of pit bulls.
more to come.....
